Hence, offices in Europe (Italy), and manufacturing in Asia. Their Worldwide headquarters moved to Mukilteo, WA, USA a few years ago... still in the Pacific Northwest. I think they would like people to believe they are an Italian company, especially when it comes to bicycle components. They started out as a privately held company and I think they still are, but perhaps they've been bought out wholly or partially by a huge Asian company but I'm not aware that.
Trust me. I am in the business and should know a bit here and there
